AUTOLIMITER® II
AUTOMATIC OVERFILL
PREVENTION VALVE
The Autolimiter ® overfill prevention valve is a self contained
two-stage positive shut-off valve designed to prevent the
overfill of an underground storage tank (UST) during a gravity
fed product delivery. When the liquid level of the UST reaches about 92% of the tank capacity during a fill, the product in
the tank raises the lower float of the valve. The primary poppet of the valve is then released and reduces flow to about
10% of normal flow. The sudden reduction in flow created
by the closing of the primary poppet provides "line shock"
to the fill hose notifying the transport delivery driver the tank
is nearing 95% capacity. The transport delivery driver can
then stop filling the tank, disconnect and drain the delivery
hose. The upper float will close off the product flow when the
product level reaches 95% of the tank capacity.
SPECIFICATIONS
•
Two-stage, spring-loaded shut-off flapper reduces
line shock.
•

Installation
• The Autolimiter® II is designed solely for use in underground storage tanks. For gravity drops only. No attempt
should be made to utilize this product with aboveground
storage tanks. The valve would not function, creating a very
dangerous condition.
